My Home Town

 My home town is Galle. It is capital of Southern Province. Galle is much relaxed city and one of the best place to catch a fresh breath. Moreover my home town is famous for its colonial fort, beautiful beach, the iconic Galle lighthouse, the popular Galle international cricket stadium and much more.๐Ÿ’†


How Galle got its name? As a result of the large number of bullock carts that took shelter in the area, following the slow journeys from remote areas of the island, the town got its name as 'Gaala' in the native dialect. Another assumption is that the word Galle comes from the Latin word gallus. Although the clutch used the rooster as a symbol of Galle, the word possibly comes from the portuguese word Galo.๐Ÿ–ค


Galle is a huge town with a population of nearly 101,749. most of them are Sinhalese a large population of Sri Lankan Moors. My home town is paradise of a beauty and culture. Galle is the best destination, for both tourists and locals to have a great time discovering history, watching the sunset at the galle fort, beaches and much more.๐Ÿ˜˜


So I consider it may blessing to be born in this city with such value.❤๐Ÿ˜˜
